I think "yet" is usually used in the negative statements. If you want necessarily use this word may be you can say this way:

Didn't you have supper yet?  
Haven't you have supper yet?

My turn.


  • Did you have supper?-- 'Did you eat before now?'
  • Did you have supper yet?-- 'Did you eat before now?-- because I may invite you to supper.' (Yet & already are common with simple past in AmE at least. Yet is used in negative statements and questions.)
  • Had you supper yet?-- Not English any more.
